- When do you need to brushog your pasture? It depends on what you are trying to accomplish. Sometimes the brush tries to take over certain parts of your pasture. Mowing it off sets back the brush into a more vegetative state that allows animals to eat the regrowth. This is much better than letting the brush take your farm. Some landowners like the appearance of a "kept" pasture, mowed off at least once per year. If you want to keep your farm profitable every year, check out my 3 grazing books that I wrote on our website: greenpasturesfa...
So generous of you to help out a new farmer.
I have watched this video several times the first time I was brought to tears when you were talking about your conversation with your friend. I am a bit teary eyed as I write.It got me to thinking about good deeds that people do for others and how they are often repaid. Several stories came to mind my father in laws story especially he and his young family were on their way home home from Quebec driving through Maine on a Sunday afternoon when their car broke down they were able to continue the journey because a garage owner left his supper to help them by fixing their car..I can imagine their fear in a foreign country many hours from home . Years later F-I-L stopped on the highway to see if he could help the Mainers stopped on the side of the road it was the man who had helped him in his hour of need . What goes around comes around. He brought his son up to do the right thing too. 🇨🇦💜🇱🇷😘💞💕🍀🌟🍀🖖🖖🖖🍀🌟🍀👍👍👍🍀🌟🍀🙋🏼♀️
Wishing him well. Sounds like a hard worker. He'll find some land. 🙏 🙏 🙏
Thanks for the video! It looks beautiful there. I’m glad you are getting rain now. Our grass is really taking off too. We got a inch last week too. It’s great you are doing that for the person. I’m sure he is so happy. I know I would be too. You all are so great to help a person out like that.
Great to be part of #gregjudy family. Life is more than a job or business! It is helping out where needed!
Thanks for what you do Greg!

There no one right answer for all situations is there. Depends on conditions, stock density, desired outcome, etc. We have started very small and tried different things simply to observe what happens and learn. It's alot of work but alot of fun!
Great video. God bless you for taking care of your friend’s herd. That’s awesome. I can’t wait to see the video when he is able to take them back.
Landowners, like customers, are not always right. But they do have the final word.
The clipped pasture looks nice. It may also help suppress growth of plants the livestock find unpalatable.
Looking good there. We can't buy a decent rain over here in KS but glad you're all getting some. Wish the new cattleman the best on replacing his lost ground.
Glad to hear youare are getting rains along.
Sage advice 👍🏼. As the saying goes... the customers alway’s right 😂
Nice folks are blessed with rain, or whatever they need. Just look at that grass!
Seeing the cattle come running in is very cool. Being able to manage them without stress is pretty amazing. No horses or dogs running them.
Stress free living for livestock is our job, our cattle appreciate it!
Cows who are used to dogs don't get stressed by them.
They may even geel safer for the protection.
That's awsome. Your a good man to help him in a pinch. I just finished up so spot hogging here this past weekend. Was mostly targeting Asther ( if that's how you spell an say it ) it was very unwanted an about knee high blocking out everything else from growing an sheep wont touch it.
Awesome long stem & leaves grass & Red South Pole #❤️❤️👍
Thats incredible impact Greg. Can you get this impact and keep the gut full?
Too bad a Shepard can’t or won’t run goats through your pastures to browse the tender growth of the shrubs and forbs they cattle do not touch.
It does look good brush hogged, it should also help by putting down a layer of nutrient rich mulch.
I try to do mostly spraying but when I mow in East Texas I start after frost clips a lot better.
Great video! Would you share how much you charge to custom graze on your land? I’m interested in some of that here in East Tennessee
“Bumps in the road” at high speed we’re all the rage in my youth! 😁

Thank you for the video.
Hey Greg I was curious how long you give the grazed pasture to rest and recover before running the brush cutter over all the unwanted rag weed and thistle.I’ve bien doing this when needed behind our sheep and chickens when needed.
Thanks Jeff Tennessee
Looks a bit like a golf course after you brush-hogged, not a farm. Maybe that's the camera's work but that owner needs to understand who he's dealing with, a farmer not a landscaper, and farming is the more difficult, more complex of the two.
The joining of the herds: it's not often cows get to experience the excitement of getting together for thanksgiving.
Morning, Greg.
We are new to MO.
What beautiful grass you have.
And that creates a burning question in my mind.
How do you deal with ticks? Yes, in your livestock, but more so on you and the guys. We are so thick with them that I spend almost as much time picking ticks as walking the land.
I’ve heard they’re loud but off grid doug & Stacy also in Missouri use Guinea fowl for tick control.
Im in north east Oklahoma (new transplant). We were pretty caught off guard by the ticks also. We got 15 guineas and it did seem to help until my dogs decided to kill and eat them all. We also starting using cedar and mint oil spray, we developed a routine where we would use a lint roller then put clothes in the dryer immediately after work outside. Yea they're everywhere but my neighbors thought we were silly for being so concerned about them lol.
Looks great! How many animal units (1000 #) are in your 370 head?
Does your property owners not say anything about the fence lines?
Awesome, have you noticed any difference between working with horned and dehorned cattle?
No difference
@@gregjudyregenerativerancher So for the sake of the animals and the farmer’s cost, it would be better to leave the horns on.. The reason l ask is because growing up in Belgium all cows around us were de-horned, living in Portugal l see most cows with horns and all of them are totaly fine when passing true the field on my bicicle or walking true the herd.. so is it a thing for the main industry where the cows are in unnatural systems that they are being de-horned for the benifit somehow of humans?
Btw l love how you share all the knowledge Greg, sooo much apreciated 🙏
Some cows can be aggressive with their horns against other cows. We have 5 or 6 with horns, they don’t bother anything.
@@gregjudyregenerativerancher Ok l see, so it’s like with all livestock, you breed for good traits and eat the ones that don’t get with the program..
I understand for some people it’s cheaper to buy hay.
I have 180 acres of pasture and only able to start with 5 cows at the moment. What is my best option to utilize my land the best way?
Hay production? Or should I just keep mowing and regenerating everything?
See if you can custom graze someone else’s cows with your 5 cows to fully stock your farm. Do not hay it!!
@@gregjudyregenerativerancher okay. What if everyone had that mentality to buy hay who would produce it?
I’ve been alive 63 years, it ain’t going to happen. Some folks love baling hay, we will buy it. You feed less hay when you buy it because it has a cost to it
Have you ever put cows or other herd animals on rough ground that contained fern? I want to use your method of regenerative grazing but have seen many sources stating fern will kill cows and goats. Do you have any wisdom to share on this matter?
Thanks in advance.
Livestock don’t typically eat fern. I guess if you starved them they might. I would not do that though, good way to go broke.
are you clipping the pasture by hand or with a tractor
With a tractor
👍👍👍
What is that heard worth?
More than a 1000
👍👍
can i seed pasture while cows are in it
What kind of seeding, if a whole new seeding, no, if your just trying to thicken the stand, yes, just keep em' movin' red clover works well, I think white clover does to... it's just not as noticeable. Frost seeding is a proven method, broadcast in late winter when the ground is going through freezes and thaws, that is if it does in your location.
@@SolarSolaceFarms i want to thicken the grass white and red clover ryegrass and some red fescue about that frost seeding i am in mountain region and its get very cold outhere so i dont know
shame no flerd. most of the weeds would have been gone, maybe a few stalks without leaves left to cut the tops
Hello
If one has a flock of sheep following, probably not :)
